"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Lol. So gio gave eternal a tip about making a new user name, and pretending that it's your girlfriend. Thumbs up, you're cool.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

How could I have been so negligent? I guess I just figured it was wrapped up in "unfunny", but the oversight has been corrected now. Thank you so much for all of your hard work and vigilance, WesCott. You know I wouldn't be able to do this without you.

Hmm... I like "small-minded". I think I'll use that one too.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Possibly because you don't understand the phrase Dogmatic?

Here, Let me help.

Dogmatic:

Characterized by an authoritative, arrogant assertion of unproved or unprovable principles

No, I know what dogmatic means, but I think it's sufficiently covered by "hypocritical" "egotistical", and "small minded."

Feel free to keep it coming though. As a moderator I value your feedback very, very, very much.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Great idea! That way, they can see how real DJ's work instead of just having to read through the bible.

:rolleyes:

A "real DJ" is mature. He's not defensive, can take constructive criticism like a man instead of like a boy. He is confident but he doesn't come across as being egotistical...he doesn't NEED to. He doesn't need to make himself look like a better person by insulting and demeaning others.

You, Eternal, are not a "real DJ", not by a long shot.


*editted name...got Eternal's name mixed up with someone from another forum I post on.
